I just want to get to camp but a long wait is now ahead of us. Time to do the summer stuff (apparently I have a wife and kids!), let the dust settle and then get to work on those 10 or 11 wins I genuinely think this team can achieve. I think that myth has been perpetuated with Bills fans thanks to Moulds

I had a similar thought regarding the horseback riding but really it's no different to the guys who ride motorcycles or the guys who play lots of other sports in their free time.

Here's Easley's highlights

Good kid. Thick hands but small frame. Footwork is sometimes good, sometimes bad. A high motor guy who can sometimes get overwhelmed at the point of attack, leading him to be engulfed by linemen. Enjoys building model railroads in his spare time, but needs to improve the realism of his outbuildings and landscapes (trees in particular).

The one I'm looking forward to see develop the most is Knox. Watched his limited highlights a few times and read a lot about him now. The kind of pick that will make Beane look like a genius if he pans out.

Yep. I used to sleep on later round picks and just hope that maybe one would pan out but the way this regime has been so far finding talent there, and in the undrafted guys, I get a lot more excited about them now

Okay I know nothing about the guys left but predict the Bills take a CB or LB

Ha, love the kicker highlights. Kick. Kick. Kick.

Just had a look at the mock first round projections on NFL.com and all 8 of their analysts had Ford going in round 1. All but one of those had him between 11-18. Doesn't mean too much but it is nice that we got a consensus mid first rounder in the second.

Don't know if this has been posted. Decent little bit of pre-draft analysis from *spit* Cowboys.com

I'm one of those crazy people who reserves judgement until I've seen a guy play in the NFL. You can definitely see his athleticism though on film. Looks to have good hands, good size. Foster didn't do much in college but they obviously saw from the tape that he had the right abilities to do more with more of a role and more targets. I did laugh when the guys on NFL Network said he had zero TDs in college because I knew a lot of people here would lose their ***** over that. We have Kroft so he can ease into things gradually and increase his time on the field.

I agree, and if they are then I don't think 10 or 11 wins is a crazy as some people think. As I just said in another thread, a great O-line just improves everything. Even the defense will benefit as they're not having to spend as long on the field, and if we get more leads they get to be more aggressive as teams are playing catchup, meaning more turnovers. Can't wait for camp to see these guys begin to work together.

I expect to see some defense today. These guys have shown so far that they're good at grabbing talented defenders in the later rounds and coaching them up into quality contributors

It's not a train wreck at all, but I would agree that I'm surprised they didn't grab one with their first third. I was expecting them to try and trade back into the second to get one. But I would say that you have to consider the O-line and the effects its re-boot will have on the passing game. On paper, the line is now the strength of the offense, and if they get a combination through camp and preseason that really gels and starts to dominate a few weeks into the season, it's going to elevate every aspect of our attack. The run game will look light years ahead of last year, and the with more time to throw, receivers are going to naturally have more time to get open. With that in mind I can see Allen throwing a lot of bombs this year to Brown and Foster. The more success Brown and Foster have going deep? The more areas are created for Beasley, Kroft and Jones, Knox etc. to get open. Plus the RBs coming out of the backfield. I know people think we're a run first team, but I could see the gameplan this year being: blitz them through the air in the first half, build a lead, then run the ball down their throats and use this new O-line to wear the ***** out of the opponent. Break their spirit!

Fant. Trade into top of second to get a DT

I love reading or watching stuff about the big nfl draft busts from history. Fascinating stuff. There's a great one on YouTube about jamarcus Russell. When you see all the hype pre draft, then the excitement on draft day, then he comes in weighing as much as a lineman, it's just incredible!

Thank F*** We're Not The Dolphins

I wouldn't have a problem with that draft

What the ***** does Mel Kiper know? With his annoying voice and stupid hair... what? He said he likes us? Always said this guy should be a GM!

I think Allen will throw a lot of INTs but a lot of TDs as well. I see him having more confidence but over confidence at times. Plus our offense will be more wide open and he'll have more time to throw, so he'll be taking more shots down field. I could see him reminding me a lot of Favre this season. Bad throw followed by a great throw - similar to last season but on a bigger scale. I don't care if he does, so long as he slings it around and we score a bunch of points I don't care about him being perfect. I do think he'll have a few 300+ yard games with multiple TDs

I had 11-5 before the release, the close out is tough but if they get momentum I can see them doing it. Could also see them having a melt down to end the season and missing the playoffs but I won't dwell on that right now.

That Cleveland game would have made a great Monday nighter in my opinion. Allen Vs Mayfield and all that.

Let's start with NE. They always start shaky so it'd be good to get a win against them early on (hopefully things turn out better than they did last time we beat them opening day)

I really want the draft to start

I don't have a man cave, but if I did I would have a large framed picture of Al Bundy on the wall
